Stephen Akrigg and Harry Metcalfe of Yellison Farm, Carleton, Skipton produce excellent Cheese, have just been on a farm visit and watched Harry preparing a fresh batch. They were also testing some new shapes for the cheese in homemade plasticine! I tried the semi hard hand rolled log, that was the cheese not the plasticine and it is without doubt quite delicious. The soft semi hard cheese is hand rolled in logs and rounds for savouries, hoping to try a few recipes soon, maybe starting with a simple red onion & goat cheese tart?
They also produce “Crowdie” a soft spreadable cheese ideal for desserts and dips that comes in tubs and again it is a delicious soft cheese, very mild with a Philadelphia texture.
